Method and system for controlling game ai which copies input pattern of gamer and playing the game

Abstract

A method and system for controlling a game artificial intelligence (AI), which can provide a lifelike game service as if a gamer plays a game with another real gamer, by enabling a game model which is determined as optimal for a particular game situation from previously played game models or randomly played game models, to play a game AI in an identical game situation. Also, a method and system which can execute the game AI in a pattern where a play trend of the gamer is reflected with respect to a particular game situation.

AI Technical Summary

Benefits of technology

[0012] The present invention provides a method and system for controlling a game AI, which can execute a game AI in a play pattern so that a play trend of a gamer is reflected in a particular game situation.

[0013] The present invention also provides a method and system for controlling a game AI, which can determine a play pattern of the game AI by considering a gamer's capability level or play style, and also can provide an improved game service, as if a gamer plays a game against a real gamer, even in a game service where the game AI plays a game as a multi-user partner.

[0014] The present invention also provides a method and system for controlling a game AI, which can provide a game service by installing a specialized AI tool, according to a gamer's request, into a gamer terminal, and enabling the installed AI tool to independently provide a game service in the gamer terminal, even when the gamer terminal does not maintain a continuous connection status with an online game server.

[0015] The present invention also provides a method and system for controlling a game AI, which can generate an AI tool by extracting a play pattern of a particular group, such as professional gamers, entertainers, teenage girls, and the like, and packaging the extracted play pattern, and also can provide a game service using a mini game AI which copies an excellent player designated by a gamer by downloading the generated AI tool to the gamer terminal.

Problems solved by technology

Accordingly, when the gamer does not have a suitable game partner, the gamer may not receive a normal game service.

Accordingly, the gamer who progresses a game together with the game AI may easily understand the game AI's play pattern and thus, quickly lose interest in the game with the game AI.

Also, since additional efforts and costs may be required, the game designer may avoid updating the control program and also may not reflect recent play trends of gamers.
